How to change the name of a faction?

For example, how to change Eastern Roman Empire to Byzantine Empire?

Open your "expanded.txt" in your "conquest/data/text/era" (era being what mod you want to change) folder and find "{BYZANTIUM}". Change the name to whatever you want, but do not change whatever is in the braces {}!

What campagin(s) do want it for? I can do it for you if you want

Thanks I have changed this!
But, something else could be done that I don't know how. If you could change Bosnian coat of arms in 1453 campaign and send it to me that would be awesome...this is my avatar and original Bosnian coat of arms:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

If you can't do this, may be you can change in original 1453 campaign, so, that, coat of arms is all covered with lilies not just half of it like @uanime5 did.

Also, How can I change the names of the characters in 1453 campaign?
These names in campaign are Hungarian.
I tried to change, but it shows nothing, not my new Bosnian names nor campaign Hungarian names.

Cheers!

If you want the coat of arms changed why not change it yourself? Changing the coat of arms involves remaking the images in the 'ui 'folder.

Regarding the names you have to add the new names to the 'conquest\data\text\names.txt' or they won't show up.

I don't know how to remake images in the 'ui' folder and I am having problems with putting new names, can't do it

I've put names in 'conquest/data/text/names.txt'
and in
'conquest/data/new_age/desc_names.txt'

But, when I want to play campaign it crashes or when I want to play campaign it returns me back to campaign menu...

Did you remove the names of the faction leader and heir from the desc_names.txt? In the 'mods\conquest\data\world\maps\campaign\new_age\descr_strat.txt' file under the entry for Bosnia (bulga) there is a family tree. If the names in the family tree are not in the desc_names.txt the campaign won't load.
